merge

public static TopDocs merge(int topN,

merge

public static TopDocs merge(int start,
                            int topN,
                            TopDocs[] shardHits)

Same as merge(int, TopDocs[]) but also ignores the top start top docs. This is typically useful for pagination.

docIDs are expected to be in consistent pattern i.e. either all ScoreDocs have their shardIndex set, or all have them as -1 (signifying that all hits belong to same searcher)
